James Brown Living In America

Tekst piosenki

Yeah, uh! Get up now! Ow! Knock out this!

Super highwys, coast to coast, easy to get anywhere
On the transcontinental overload, just slide behind the wheel
How does it feel

When theres no destination-that’s too far
And somewhere on the way, you might find out who you are

Livin’ in America-eye to eye, station to station
Livin’ in America-hand to hand, across the nation
Livin in America-got to have a celebration

Rock my soul

Smokestack, fatback, many miles of railroad track
All night radio, keep on runnin’ through, your rock 'n’ roll soul
All night diners, keep you 'wake, on black coffee, and a hard roll

You might have to walk the fine line
You might take the hard line
But everybody’s workin’ overtime

Livin’ in America-eye to eye, station to station
Livin’ in America-hand to hand, across the nation
Livin in America-got to have a celebration

I live in America, help me out
But I live in America
Wait a minute
You may not be looking for the promise land
But you might find it anyway
Under one of those old familiar names
Like New Orleans (New Orleans) Detroit City (Detroit City), Dallas (Dallas), Pittsburg P.A. (Pittsburg P.A.) New York City (New York City)Kansas City (Kansas City)Atlanta (Atlanta) CHICAGO & L.A.!

Livin in America-hit me
Livin in America-yeah
I walk in and out
Livin’ in America

I live in America-state lines
Gonna make the prime, that
I live in America-hey
I know what it means, I

Livin’ in America…
Livin’ in America- hit me now, eye to eye, station to station
Livin’ in America
Livin’ in America-I feel good!
